Exegesis
The final Niphal imperfect yis-sā-ref {יִשָּׂרֵֽף | yis-sā-ref} denotes unavoidable burning, located by bā-’ēsh {בָּאֵ֖שׁ | bā-’ēsh} ‘in the fire’. Hebrew paratactic vav conjunctions, construct chains, and repeated passive stems create a legal sequence that moves from eating to complete consumption by fire.
